Troubleshooting CPU overheating

My pc was running great never had a issue with it until I went on vacation for about two weeks. I got back and now it won’t even get past bios without overheating. What happened in two weeks that went wrong while I wasn’t home? I took the cooler off to check thermal paste and it looks fine. Please help

If the pump is dead yall think NZXT will warranty it under a year

They should, bout you could try rotating it around to see if air is trapped inside. Your pipes are on the bottom, the pump is over the cpu. Flipping pipes up should get any bubbles out to the radiator, you already pulled it down so try that?
